Pressinfo

"[Faran Flad's music] relies heavily on their Kentish singer, Heather Grabham, whose traditional British songs are interspersed with tunes either from these islands or composed in that style. With the tunes, the lead is shared between Heather's whistle playing and Luc Pilartz's fiddle. It is all delivered in a pleasing and varied manner that should make them very popular at festivals here and on the continent."
